History VideoGame / JurassicWorldAlive

** ''Stegosaurus'' is depicted with paired plates as in its predecessors, rather than alternatively arranged plates which the movie got right.

** A recent update adds in the ''Spinosaurus aegypticus'' which is very accurate to what is now known about the animal, with an M-shaped sail, shorter hind legs, and a tail fin.

'''Jurassic World Alive''' is a free-to-play, location-based augmented reality game akin to the well known VideoGame/PokemonGo. In it, players search for prehistoric animals roaming in the world, gather their DNA, and create their own. When that is done, players can participate in matches to gain rewards and DNA to further upgrade their forces.

* CurbStompBattle: With stat boosts and new additions of increasingly more and more powerful creatures, particularly Apex and Unique rarity creatures, it's entirely possible to pull off a completely one-sided 3-0[[note]]The first player to take down 3 of their opponent's creatures wins the match[[/note]] victory in PvP matches and Campaign battles. It's not unusual to get matched against a player with a dinosaur or prehistoric monster a few levels above yours, and once you reach a certain level in PVP, it's all out the window.

* HerdHittingAttack: Quite a few moves will hit all opponents in a raid, usually marked with "Group" in their name. In normal PvP they function like normal attacks, except against Flocks; rather than stopping at the damage thresholds, they can punch through them and start damaging the next flock member in line.

* MutualKill: This can occur if a creature defeats its opponent, only to be killed itself at the end of the turn via Damage Over Time. There's even an achievement for pulling this off in a PvP match.

* MakeMeWannaShout: Depending on the creature, some of their animations consist of nothing but a roar. ''Mortem rex'', Rexy, and ''Tyrannometrodon'' all have different signature abilities that involve roaring, damaging all opponents and increasing damage.

* HealingFactor: Several creatures have healing abilities. Ornithopods in particular are defined by their healing and debuff-cleansing moves.

** The megaraptoran ''Fukuiraptor'' is egregiously portrayed as a featherless dromaeosaurid, complete with killing claws on its feet. Like other members of its family, ''Fukuiraptor'' would have killing claws on its ''hands'' instead.

* EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: ''Moros intrepidus'', following how most other franchise media refers to it, is referred to as exactly that: ''Moros intrepidus''. This is unlike almost all(except ''T. rex'', obviously) other animals which only use their species name. ''Panthera blytheae'' is also referred to by its full name, but this is justified as it doesn't have a common name like Dire Wolf or Marsupial Lion.

** The Fourth of July spawns red, blue, green and yellow("fireworks" colored) creatures.

* HybridPower: All hybrids in game essentially possess a mix of their two components' skills, but often powered up accordingly.

* UniquenessDecay: Originally, the Apex rarity was reserved only for creatures that were available only through extremely difficult raids(one on each day). However, this changed with the introduction of the eighth Apex, ''Arctovasilas'', who instead is obtained by fusing the Legendary ''Arctalces'' with the Unique ''Testacornibus'', followed by ''Ankylos lux'' the next update formed by fusing ''Ankylomoloch'' and ''Diorajasaur'', again a Legendary and a Unique respectively. The original seven Apexes did not follow suit with this, and it seems like since then there has been somewhat of a balance between non-fuseable Apexes available only through raids and fuseable Apexes.

* YouWillNotEvadeMe: Many creatures, often Fierce creatures, are able to lock down their opponent and keep them from swapping out, although if the target resists or is immune to swap prevention there's a chance that they'll just waltz right out anyways. The "No Escape" ability, commonly found in large crocodiles and spinosaurs, is noteworthy, as it's essentially a permanent lockdown that tries to deny every attempt to flee with a lockdown; Alert Swarm is the same, used by ''Compsognathus'', but it fails if only one flock member is left. And that's not getting into even more dastardly variants like Stunning Obstruction, which locks down the target, does damage, ''and'' Stuns...

** The third one saw the Dodo taking the role of the event boss. Notably, this ended up being an EarlyBirdCameo for the playable Dodo, albeit with vastly different stats.[[note]]The event Dodo was a BonusBoss equipped with damage-boosting attacks that let it utterly shred opponents and was faced as a single creature. The playable Dodo is a flock creature [[DiscardAndDraw that lacks the absurd stats, but makes up for it by being able to health-gate attacks via its flock members]].[[/note]]

** Introduced a bit later after the game's launch, there's a large variety of pterosaurs and they're all over the place with accuracy. Most have at least some covering of pycnofibers but also tend to use their feet to pick up and scratch things. There are small, long-tailed pterosaurs like ''Dimorphodon'' who are very weak stat-wise and specialize in inflicting Damage Over Time, and medium-sized, short-tailed pterosaurs like ''Pteranodon'' that specialize in ramping up damage and counter-attacking; both of them are Fierce creatures. There are the giant azhdarchids, who are Resilient walls, as mentioned [[GiantFlyer above]], and finally the very tiny pterosaurs such as ''Anurognathus'' fight in flocks of three, specializing in dodging and acceleration, falling under the Cunning class.

* RaptorAttack: ''Utahraptor'', ''Pyroraptor'', ''Deinonychus'', ''Dakotaraptor'', ''Troodon'' and of course ''Velociraptor''. The first four are depicted with wings and body feathers, while the last two are scaly in typical ''Jurassic Park/Jurassic World'' fashion. Blue, Charlie, Delta, and Echo can also be encountered and used in the game, as can the ''Atrociraptors'' Ghost, Red, Tiger, and Panthera. And there's various hybrids that can be made using dromeosaur DNA. ''Fukuiraptor'' is portrayed as this as well, [[ArtisticLicensePaleontology despite being a megaraptoran]].

** ''Fukuiraptor'' (a megaraptoran tyrannosauroid) uses the same animations as the dromaeosaurids, and thus it is depicted with killing claws on its feet.

** ''Scolosaurus'' looks more a corrected version of the in-game ''Ankylosaurus'', when the real animal was essentially a ''Euoplocephalus'' with longer horns.

** ''Yutyrannus'' looks more like a feathery ''T. rex'' with three-fingered hands. The real animal was more slender in build and had longer arms. This is egregious considering previous games got it right.

* PandaingToTheAudience: On April Fools' Day in 2022, the Miocene panda ''Ailurarctos'' was released with no foreshadowing. Make no mistake, though, it's still a powerful Epic.

** For the first time in years after ''Builder'', arthropods once more joined the roster in time for 2022's HalloweenEpisode, with ''[[ScaryScorpions Pulmonoscorpius]'', its Unique superhybrid ''Dsungascorpius'', and the Apex ''Alacranix''.

* ColourCodedForYourConvenience: The six rarity levels (Common, Rare, Epic, Legendary, Unique, and Apex) have their own colours (grey, blue, yellow, red, green, and black and gold, respectively) shown on the border of each creature's icon and underneath their feet on the map. Additionally, all hybrids have a purple tinted background on their icons.

* PteroSoarer: Introduced a bit later after the game's launch, there's a large variety of pterosaurs and they're all over the place with accuracy. Most have at least some covering of pycnofibers but also tend to use their feet to pick up and scratch things. There are small, long-tailed pterosaurs like ''Dimorphodon'' who are very weak stat-wise and specialize in inflicting Damage Over Time, and medium-sized, short-tailed pterosaurs like ''Pteranodon'' that specialize in ramping up damage and counter-attacking; both of them are Fierce creatures. There are the giant azhdarchids, who are Resilient walls, as mentioned [[GiantFlyer above]], and finally the very tiny pterosaurs such as ''Anurognathus'' fight in flocks of three, specializing in dodging and acceleration, falling under the Cunning class.

* SwallowedWhole: One of ''Beelzebufo's'' attack animations has it shoot its OverlyLongTongue at the target and stick to it before pulling the opponent [[JustEatHim into its waiting mouth]], causing the screen to turn dark and be covered in digestive juices before being spat out. Fitting for a creature named after [[Beelzebub the biblical demon prince of gluttony.]]

* AgeLift: One of the Ceratopsians in the game, a legendary hybrid named ''Spinoceratops'' appears to resemble an all-grown up version of one of the Sino-Spino baby hybrids from ''WesternAnimation/JurassicWorldCampCretaceous''.

* AmphibianAssault: The sole new creature for Update 2.22 is ''Beelzebufo,'' otherwise known as the devil's frog known for being the largest frog species to ever evolve.

** The fifth brings the ancient demon frog ''Beelzebufo'' as a flock creature and one huge ''Beelzebufo'' serves as the boss.

** While many theropods are commendably feathered, they all possess the pronated wrists that were made common in the movies, and the ''Troodon''[[note]]Which, by the way, might not even exist considering the genus is only known from a single tooth[[/note]] is curiously featherless, despite ''Deinonychus'' and ''Dakotaraptor'' possessing extensive plumage and being released a few updates before and after respectively, its depiction in the Jurassic World game which debuted two years prior was also feathered.

* DiscOneNuke: The ''Velociraptor'' is the first creature you will ever obtain, and spawns everywhere all the time. With enough dedication and resources, it can easily become a devastating GlassCannon. Plus, it is required to create the ''Indominus rex'', and thus its further three hybrids, one of which is an Apex.
** Two rare hybrids, ''Suchotator'' and ''Purrolyth'', can be created in the early game as they made only 2 common ingredients, and are surprisingly stronger than any other common or rare creatures in the game. Bleed and rend can be very effective against pretty much everything that at least doesn't have to resist bleed or rend (or cleansing in bleed's case).

* FullBoarAction: The terminator pigs ''Entelodon'' and ''Archaeotherium'' are present in the game, though they are not actual pigs.

* GottaCatchEmAll: The entire premise of this game.

** While not actual bosses, many creatures such as ''Diloracheirus'', ''Testacornibus'', and ''Parasauthops'' boast incredible healing capabilities. Letting them take the advantage and then trying to punch through them can [[DamageSpongeBoss certainly feel like a boss battle in itself.]]

** April Fools' has PvE events with absurdly overpowered versions of weak creatures, such as goats. The 2022 event was also the surprise debut of ''Ailurarctos'', a prehistoric ''panda'' of all things.

* LethalJokeCharacter: Every single April Fools' boss is this: a fairly silly opponent, be it a comically oversized ''Lythronax'', a goat, or a Dodo, that is fully capable of shredding an entire raid squad in one turn.
* LimitBreak: Most creatures in the game have at least one charged attack that either deals the most damage in their moveset, gives plenty of good stat buffs/healing, or both but aren't able to use it again until 2-3 turns passed.
* MakeMeWannaShout: Depending on the creature, some of their animations consist of nothing but a roar. ''Mortem rex's'' signature attack is quite literally just a "Roar"; a roar that damages, shatters Shields, pierces Armor, hits every opponent, and then buffs the entire team's Damage.
* MammothsMeanIceAge: The Woolly Mammoth was added as a creature in 1.11.

* PowerGlows: Apex creatures, the most powerful in the game, tend to have glowing body parts, with the exception of ''Gorgotrebax'' and ''Arctovasilas'' who instead have an icy haze. ''Mortem rex'' has glowing spines, ''[[MeaningfulName Hadros lux]]'' [[MeaningfulName and]] ''[[MeaningfulName Ankylos lux]]'' have glowing blue and purple markings respectively, ''Ceramagnus'' has iridescent feathers, ''Refrenantem'' and ''Haast maximus'' have glowing lava-like markings, ''Hydra Boa'' has thick and bright scales, ''Indonemys'' and ''Indolycan'' have [[GlowingEyesOfDoom glowing eyes]], and ''Imperatosuchus'' has a glowing purple maw, especially its tongue. ''Alacranix'' has glowing red spikes during the day, but at night its whole body is overtaken by a cyan glow.
** ''Parasaurolophus lux'' from ''WesternAnimation/JurassicWorldCampCretaceous'' also similarly glows purple in the collection lab and in dark/nighttime settings. It was also the first non-hybrid creature that's a Legendary until Rexy was introduced.

* RhinoRampage: Update 1.7 introduced the Woolly Rhino(''Coelodonta''), ''Elasmotherium'', and the brontothere ''Brontotherium'' [[ScienceMarchesOn (actually ]] ''[[ScienceMarchesOn Megacerops]]''[[ScienceMarchesOn , and not actually a real rhino)]]. Each of course has their respective hybrids.

* SturdyAndSteadyTurtles: ''Carbonemys'' was added as an obtainable creature in update 1.9, and has one turtle hybrid, ''Carbotoceratops'', which is a component in the superhybrid ''Testacornibus''. ''Meiolania'' was added in a later update, with two powerful Unique superhybrids: ''Entelolania'' and ''Mammolania''. Turtles are ''the'' de facto StoneWall creatures, with tremendous Health and Armor but very little of anything else...unless they use their powerful Devastation attack, which does '''triple''' Precise damage.
* SwallowedWhole: One of ''Beelzebufo's'' attack animations has it shoot its OverlyLongTongue at the target and stick to it before pulling the opponent [[JustEatHim into its waiting mouth]], causing the screen to turn dark and be covered in digestive juices before being spat out. Fitting for a creature named after the biblical demon prince of gluttony.

** For the first time in 6 years, Arthropods now finally have a representative in the roster just in time for the game's HalloweenEpisode, with those representatives being [[ScaryScorpions a trio of scorpions]] (the Epic ''Pulmonoscorpius'', the Unique superhybrid ''Dsungascorpius'', and Apex ''Alacranix''.
* TheDogBitesBack: The goats players use to feed the carnivores in their sanctuaries broke out and became Boss-level creatures for the players to fight as part of the second April Fool’s Day event, [[spoiler:and some of them have stats on par with Lord Lythronax.]]

* UniquenessDecay: Originally, the Apex rarity was reserved only for creatures that were available only through extremely difficult raids(one on each day). However, this changed with the introduction of the eighth Apex, ''Arctovasilas'', who instead is obtained by fusing the Legendary ''Arctalces'' with the Unique ''Testacornibus'', followed by ''Ankylos lux'' the next update formed by fusing ''Ankylomoloch'' and ''Diorajasaur'', again a Legendary and a Unique respectively. The original seven Apexes have not followed suit with this, and it would appear that since then with each Apex released it alternates between being an unfusable raid-exclusive non-hybrid or a combination of two hybrids.
